While conducting a welfare check at the home of a 23-year-old woman late Wednesday night, Texas cops found her deceased body with numerous stab wounds. They also found her ex-boyfriend dead in another apartment nearby.
Molly Beckman, a Texas Tech Health Sciences Center student, was fatally stabbed at her house in the Ashton Pointe Apartments on February 3, Lubbock police mentioned.
Her ex-boyfriend, Colton Totzke, was found lifeless in an apartment nearby that same night.
